Testimony Tuesday – Learning To Farm And Make Compost In Malawi

God is at work in Malawi. 

Crown has had a training center in Malawi since 2008. We continually get testimonies like those coming after a recent 1-day training with our partner, Foundations for Farming. 36 people learned about faith, family, farming, and finances.  Convinced of the benefits of regenerative farming, they left desiring to make compost and plant their own gardens. One testimony said:

“I learned something about the love of God. He made everything that we can use to have enough food for our families. I learned that making compost is cheap and I can make it at my home. I hope it will be easy for me to follow the ways that I learned because I know it can help feed my family. In our dry season, I want to plant vegetables, sell them to people, and earn a profit. We’ll be working together as a family.”

Another testimony said, “A friend told me I could attend the 1-day training. I thank the Lord for this opportunity. I thought that I would add new skills to our old farming system, but when I entered that gate, I saw something different from what I expected: small plots were covered with dry grass, trees planted in those plots, and big trees around the farm. Seeing these things, I knew I would learn something different. I’m so thankful to God to learn about composting. I can make my own at my house because all the materials are available. It was a big problem for me to buy fertilizer, but now I will use compost, and I’ll be able to feed my family.”

Well, praise the Lord for those stories. I want you to check out our budget coaching program. It can put you on the road to financial freedom. Go to crown.org and click “Get Help Now.” You can start today at crown.org.
